Nayatel has launched Pakistan’s first locally hosted PostgreSQL Database-as-a-Service (DBaaS) in partnership with global PostgreSQL specialists Stormatics, marking a significant milestone for the country’s digital infrastructure. For years, local businesses across sectors have struggled with data management challenges due to reliance on international cloud services that often introduced more complications than solutions. These included high hosting costs, latency issues, regulatory concerns, and the absence of reliable local support. This new offering directly addresses those issues by introducing a locally managed, secure, and cost-effective database hosting platform.
The collaboration was formally announced during a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signing ceremony at Nayatel’s head office, where senior representatives from both companies expressed their shared vision for enabling smarter and more secure cloud services in Pakistan. According to Nayatel’s Senior Manager Marketing, the initiative is set to simplify database operations for businesses by offering an efficient solution that allows them to concentrate on scaling operations rather than dealing with technical backend infrastructure.
Designed with modern business needs in mind, the PostgreSQL DBaaS supports end-to-end database lifecycle management. It handles provisioning, backups, performance optimization, and regular updates, while offering a suite of advanced capabilities. These include automated daily backups, point-in-time recovery, high availability through active failover, web-based management interfaces, and secure TLS-based connections. Additional features like encryption at rest, audit logging, load balancing, and connection pooling help ensure enterprise-grade performance and data integrity.
With the database hosted locally within Pakistan, users benefit from dramatically reduced latency and improved data privacy, while also staying compliant with national data protection laws. This makes the solution ideal for businesses operating in fintech, eCommerce, SaaS platforms, and enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems that demand speed, security, and real-time reliability. The platform’s reliability is further supported by optional database migration services, technical training, and performance tuning, all managed by experts within the country.
Nayatel, widely known for its robust fiber internet services, continues to expand its cloud computing footprint by delivering localized solutions that meet global standards. This PostgreSQL DBaaS offering aligns with its strategy of enabling digital transformation through dependable infrastructure that speaks to the specific requirements of Pakistan’s growing tech ecosystem. Partnering with Stormatics, which brings deep expertise in PostgreSQL, adds to the strength of this solution and ensures technical excellence across all service layers.
With rising demand for cloud infrastructure in Pakistan, this launch represents a timely solution for organizations seeking a reliable, efficient, and locally compliant database service. By bringing hosting closer to the end users, Nayatel and Stormatics are offering an attractive alternative to offshore cloud providers, empowering businesses to operate with greater speed, confidence, and control over their data.
